Neuropsychological assessments have a wide range of clinical uses, including diagnostic clarification as well as ADHD, learning disability, and academic assessments. With the addition of testing to a treatment plan, Dr. Arthur will be able to further clarify a person’s diagnosis and the severity, when compared to the public. It will further identify a person’s strengths and abilities to aid in their mental health recovery. It is important to note that only licensed clinical psychologists can administer or supervise the administration of neuropsychological assessments outside of a school environment.
Dr Arthur’s neuropsychological assessments consists of three main verticals that are interconnected and supportive of each other. The first vertical is the neuro-cognitive performance testing which will assess a person’s ability to engage in abstract thinking, problem solving, reasoning, memory both visual and auditory, sustaining attention, distractibility, and the ability to learn from their environment. This vertical will help guide treatment planning, the methodology of treatment, and assist in any aftercare or college planning.
The second vertical is clinical diagnostic testing and personality assessments. For individuals who struggle with interpersonal relationships or want to develop greater insight into their own struggles, these assessments will provide them with a roadmap to their personality and may improve interpersonal functioning. For clients who are unsure of their diagnosis or have complex etiologies, the vertical will additionally help clarify diagnosis.
The third vertical is career and education assessments. For clients who are struggling to maintain performance in a college or post-graduate education, Dr. Arthur offers a full range of learning assessments, including for ADHD. Additionally, he offers evidence-based assessment for career pathways based on the client’s personality, strengths, and abilities. Dr. Arthur can assess someone’s academic achievement and what type of learning environment would best suit them.
Each client will get a tailored report and individual feedback by our neuropsychologist based on their results. Please feel free to reach out to Dr. Arthur for a specific list of tests offered.
